DFA Issue Still There

Every time I create a new league the DFA issue still comes up. I can't tell you how mad I am at this.

Strange. I played through an entire season and the AI did not DFA or release a single player after the patch. It was basically unplayable for me before the patch unless I played Historical seasons. The only things I don't personally control are Minor League promotions/demotions, Minor League lineups/depth charts/pitching staffs, and Minor League player strategy. I have the computer control those 3 areas.

meant to clarify, it was in a standard MLB game and when i went to add a couple of international leagues it put all of my minors in DFA. but not when I delayed player creation

Well I spoke too soon. On May 11th of the next season I am hit with 7 players who are out of time in DFA. One difference I can see this time is that all of these players were generating stats in lower level minors. I went to the teams and looked to see if I could tell why they may have been DFA'd. I have no clue. There were other players with worse ratings both current and potential that could have been chosen. 2.5 to 3 star players DFA'd when you have 1.5 star players on the same team the AI chose to keep. I am gonna release weaker players and place those players back on the roster to see what happens. Before the patch the AI would just DFA them again.

Let me say this, watch your Major League team you control closely if you release those DFA'd players. When I release them in my game it also releases players from my Major League team. A while ago I released 3 players from the DFA that the AI had placed there. When I did it also released my starting catcher, 1B, and 2B. I didn't notice it for 11 days until my sim was stopped to activate a player who was out of rehab time.
